This luxurious hotel, newly opened in June 2014, has been designed to complement the beautiful surroundings of Lake Mývatn and the Laxá river. Possessing unrivalled views, each wing has its own name inspired by the river.

All 80 bedrooms feature wooden floors and are beautifully decorated and equipped with the comforts that define a quality hotel. Notable is the color scheme of the restaurant which is based on the area’s wonderful geothermal phenomena.

Ringed by mountains, Lake Mývatn is uniquely charming. Volcanic landforms such as lava pillars and pseudo craters envelope the lake and its wetlands, which are rich in flora and fauna. The teeming waters of the river Laxá are a certain pull for fishing enthusiasts while the nearby Mývatn baths offer a rare opportunity to relax in naturally heated waters, renowned for their beneficial mineral content.
